The purpose of this program is to provide specialized classroom instruction and practical
shop experience to prepare individuals to engage in the servicing and maintenance of all
types of automobiles at the entry level. The program prepares the individual to select,
safely use, and maintain hand and power tools, jacks, and hoisting equipment. Instruction
in the diagnosis of malfunctions and the repair of engines; fuel, electrical, cooling, and
brake systems; drive train; and suspension systems is included. The competencies in the
automotive technology program are directly correlated with the knowledge required to
prepare an individual for the certification test given by the National Institute for
Automotive Service Excellence (ASE). The content is organized into competency-based
courses of instruction that specify occupational competencies the individual must
successfully complete according to the priorities for tasks established by the National
Automotive Technicians Education Foundation (NATEF).

SURGICAL TECHNOLOGY
Associate of Applied Science Degree
The Surgical Technology Program at Acadiana Technical College is an Associate of
Applied Sciences Degree program. Successful completion of the course of studies meets
the qualifying standards required to take the National Certification Exam for Surgical
Technologists. The certifying exam is written and administered by the Liaison Council on
Certification for the Surgical Technologist (LCC-ST).
Certified Surgical Technologists (CST) are integral members of the surgical team who
work closely with surgeons, anesthesia providers, registered nurses, and other surgical
personnel delivering patient care before, during, and after surgery. Their primary
responsibility is maintaining the sterile field. The CST handles the instruments, supplies
and equipment necessary during the surgical procedure. CST have an understanding of
the procedure being performed, anticipate the needs of the surgeon and have the
necessary knowledge and ability to ensure quality patient care during the operative
procedure.
The student should recognize that the clinical rotation of the Surgical Technology
program demands that the proper attitude, work habits, communication skills and manual
dexterity are developed and evaluated along with academic readiness.
CPTR 1000 and ORNT 1000 are pre-requisites for entrance into the surgical technology
program. HNUR 1211 and HNUR 1300 are entry level courses that must be completed
with an 80% minimum for progression into the clinical portion of the surgical technology
program. General education courses including MATH 1015, ENGL 1015, PHSC 1015
and PSYC 2015 should be completed prior to enrollment into the required surgical
technology courses. Some courses have prerequisites, which must be successfully
completed before enrolling into upper level courses.

ELECTRICIAN
Technical Diploma
The purpose of this program is to provide a basic core of specialized instruction and
practical shop experience to prepare students for employment in electrical trades.
Students who complete the basic core may choose any of the specialty areas. Specialty
areas prepare the graduate as an Industrial Electrician, Marine Electrician, or Commercial
Electrician.
The Industrial Electrician course will prepare individuals to install, troubleshoot, and
repair wiring, electrical equipment, and other electrical devices used in the industrial
environment, such as motors (AC and DC drives), transformers, control systems,
instruments, PLC's, and lighting systems.
The Marine Electricity program prepares individuals to install and repair wiring fixtures,
and equipment for electrical services aboard ships and in shipyard facilities. Marine
wiring methods and equipment will also be covered.
The Commercial Electricity program generally prepares individuals to install, maintain,
troubleshoot, and repair electrical devices, components, and equipment that are utilized in
residential and commercial electrical systems. Students have two options to complete this
diploma: by course work, or by employment in a work-based course with an electrical
contractor.
All program specialties emphasize safe and efficient work practices, basic occupational
skills, and are organized into competency-based courses that specify occupational
competencies, which the student must successfully complete. Each area includes a study
of all applicable codes and standards, blueprint reading, wiring diagrams, and
installations which are appropriate to the area. All work is performed with an emphasis
on shop and work safety.

PRACTICAL NURSING
Technical Diploma
The Practical Nursing program is designed to prepare the student to meet the licensure
requirements for Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), as established by the Louisiana State
Board of Practical Nurse Examiners (LSBPNE). The program progresses from simple to
complex and consists of classroom instruction; lab practicum and supervised clinical
activities in accredited hospitals, nursing homes, and other health care agencies.
Students should note that some courses have prerequisites, which must be successfully
completed before enrolling into upper level courses and continuing in the program.
Students must demonstrate basic computer skills prior to advancement into the acute care
clinical component of the program. Practical Nursing Program Coordinators or their
designees may assess a student’s basic computer skills by administering a competency
exam or having the student successfully complete the CPTR 1000 or a comparable
computer course.
Articulated courses are determined at the discretion of the Practical Nurse Program
Coordinator and based upon individual evaluation as described in the 2005 Louisiana
Nursing Education Articulation Model.
Each course in the PN program must be successfully completed with a minimum score of
80%. Upon graduation, the student is awarded a diploma and is eligible to take the
National Council of State Boards Licensure Examination for Practical Nurses (NCLEX-
PN).
